05. About us: our expertise, our approach, our methods, our processes and the expert services we deliver.
Our vision, our values, and our approach to our
work have taken us a long way.
Founded in 1982 by Joseph ( Josie) Gallagher, the Joseph
Gallagher Group is a family-driven business built on
hard work, integrity, and safety. Today, we operate
across the UK, MENA and Canada, with five specialist
subsidiaries, employing over 900 people and generating
an annual turnover of £162m.
We’ve grown significantly since our journey began and
have been involved in some of the UK’s largest major
infrastructure projects – including Liverpool Bay CCS,
Hinkley Point C, Little Horsted, Snowdonia, A9 Scotland,
Snowdonia Cilfor, Guildford STW Relocation Scheme,
London’s infamous Super Sewer (Thames Tideway),
Docklands Light Railway (DLR) Crossrail, HS2 and
numerous high profile Transport for London Underground
station projects to name a few.
Our vision and values
We have made a commitment to create an inspiring
environment for our people to feel safe, empowered and
succeed while they work proudly for the Joseph Gallagher
Group. It’s an environment that has evolved significantly,
but relies on putting our people first.
We aim to create a high-performing culture where safety
and wellbeing are non-negotiable. Our LIFE programme
(Living Incident Free Everyday) underpins everything we
do, ensuring everyone goes home safe every day.
